Full description
Celebrate a special event with your family or friends with aunique adventure in the heart of Florence.
At the crack of dawn, you will board a hot-air balloon reserved only for you, equipped with a glass bottom. You will be able to admire the breathtaking panorama of the Tuscan capital from the transparent floor, in the company of the people closest to you. Guided by an experienced pilot, you will fly in total peace and safety.
At the end of the flight, refreshments of typical products and a glass of champagne will be waiting for you to toast together!
What we will do
The rendezvous is in the Florence take-off area, at first light. We will be welcomed here by the pilot, who will direct us to the hot-air balloon with a glass bottom, for our exclusive use.
We will then board the hot air balloon via special passages on the side of the basket and, after a briefing on safety regulations, we will finally be ready to take off. The pilot will briefly explain the behaviour to be adopted during the various phases of the flight.
We will reach an altitude of between 300 and 1200 metres, depending on the wind of the day. During the flight, we will be able to admire the magnificent city of Florence and the Tuscan countryside from above, enjoying the view from the invisible floor beneath our feet.
After about 1 hour of flight, it will be time to land. Wind conditions will determine the landing zone, generally on grassland near Florence. Afterwards, we will find refreshments waiting for us, prepared by the crew, including delicious pastries, a plate of cheese and local products, and a glass of champagne.
After the refreshments, the pilot will take us back to the take-off site. The activity has a total duration of about 3 hours and includes the flight, safety briefing and return to the starting point.
